Abstract :
By the method of wavelet entropy and complexity, we found that moxibustion can obviously change the complexity of brain signals through analysis, and the wavelet energy entropy of its brain signals have notable changes as well. According the result of analysis and its physical significance of brain signals, it is found that moxibustion stimulating neiguan point has notable effects to brain, which provide new paths and methods to Chinese medical treatment theory.
